September 2020 Healthy News from Hollstrom & Associates Inc: Cox Technic Relieves Back Pain due to Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic Spondylolisthesis and Eat an Apple!

Largo chiropractic care with Cox Technic alleviates back pain due to a painful combination of a disc extrusion and a spondylolytic spondylolisthesis.

 
Cox® Technic Delivers Back Pain Relief for a Challenging Case: Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic Spondylolisthesis

Extruded discs by themselves are painful and many times believed to be surgical issues. Spondylolytic spondylolisthesis by itself is a disabling, painful condition and often thought to be a surgical issue necessitating fusion. Bring these two conditions together in in one patient and the Largo chiropractic patient and the treating physician like your Largo chiropractor encounter a challenge that demands gentle, experienced care. A recently published case report of a patient with an extruded discone that has escaped its outer bands and settled into the spinal canal space – and spondylolytic spondylolisthesis – involving separation of the pars interarticularis – described how just 9 visits in 4 weeks brought about pain relief. The patient who ranked his pain a 9 out of 10 (a 10 being the worst pain) on visit 1 rated it 0 out of 10 on visit 9. Follow-up at ten years revealed that the patient showed no orthopedic or neurological issues and recounted no recurrence of the original symptoms. (1) What was the treatment plan? The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management, the same care offered at our chiropractic clinic. Hollstrom & Associates Inc welcomes challenging Largo back pain cases like this!

Listen to this PODCAST with chiropractic back pain specialist, Dr. Casey Bearden on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson as he presented how spondylolisthesis with disc bulges positively responded to his treatment utilizing the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.

Largo chiropractic care encourages healthy diets full of fruits and veggies, so enjoy an apple the apple season! 

Largo CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:

Delight in This Apple Season!

Feed the gut. Lose some weight and increase your bone density to improve your spine. Lower your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Protect the brain. How? Have an apple! Apples are extraordinarily healthy! They have few calories, good pre-biotic pectin that feeds the good gut bacteria, plenty of fiber and water to fill you up, loads of polyphenols in the peel which are antioxidant, acetylcholine-level-preserving factors to protect the brain, and flavonoids that may lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and stroke risk. (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) Apples supplement a healthy chiropractic approach to life!
